A WebGIS-Based Platform for Sharing Earthquake Surface Rupture Data in Mainland China
Earthquake surface ruptures provide critical geological evidence for identifying seismogenic structures, reconstructing rupture processes of strong earthquakes, and assessing seismic hazards associated with active faults.

The Ms 8.0 Wenchuan earthquake occurred along the Longmenshan Faults in China and was a great disaster. Most of the damage and casualties during the quake were concentrated along surface rupture zones: the 240-km-long Beichuan-Yingxiu Fault and the 70-km-

Surface ruptures and building damage of the 2003 Bam, Iran earthquake mapped by satellite synthetic apeerture radar interferometric correlation [PDF]
We use the interferometric correlation from Envisat synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images to map the details of the surface ruptures related to the 26 December 2003 earthquake that devastated Bam, Iran.

Width of surface rupture zone for thrust earthquakes. Implications for earthquake fault zoning. [PDF]
Abstract. The characteristics of the zones of coseismic surface faulting along thrust faults are analysed in order to define the criteria for zoning the Surface Fault Rupture Hazard (SFRH) along thrust faults. Normal and strike-slip faults have been deeply studied in the past concerning SFRH, while thrust faults have not been studied with comparable ...

Conditional probability of distributed surface rupturing during normal-faulting earthquakes [PDF]
Abstract. Coseismic surface faulting is a significant source of hazard for critical plants and distributive infrastructure; it may occur either on the principal fault or as distributed rupture on nearby faults. Hazard assessment for distributed faulting is based on empirical relations which, in the case of normal faults, were derived almost 15 years ...

Holocene surface rupturing earthquakes on the Dinaric Fault System, western Slovenia [PDF]
Abstract. The Dinaric Fault System in western Slovenia, consisting of NW-SE trending, right-lateral strike-slip faults, accommodates the northward motion of Adria with respect to Eurasia. These active faults show a clear imprint in the morphology and some of them hosted moderate instrumental earthquakes.

The 22 August 1902 Mw 7.7 Atushi earthquake is the most disastrous seismic event in the southwestern Tian Shan. However, the spatial distribution of surface rupture zones as well as the geometric feature of surface deformation remain unclear, and the ...

Following observations made in a survey campaign along the Lost River Fault (Idaho, USA) in 2019, we integrate both original and previously published data to obtain a detailed segmentation of the fault sections that failed in the 1983 Borah Peak ...

Aerial Mapping of Coseismic Surface Rupture of 2021 Mw 7.3 Maduo Earthquake, China
The 2021 Mw 7.3 Maduo earthquake is one of the largest seismic events that has occurred in and around the Bayan Har block of Tibet. D-InSAR results and field surveys indicate that this earthquake resulted in more than 160 km of coseismic surface rupture ...
